As an organisation we strive to place patient safety and service improvement at the heart of everything we do. We aspire to be a good partner: innovative, collaborative and passionate about patient experience, and we work closely with service users, their carers, our partners in other agencies and third sector colleagues to deliver integrated care across our local system. The Trust values: Everyone Matters, Working Together, Making a Difference are at the core of everything we do for our patients, and represent our aspiration for the type of hospital we strive to be. The Trust identifies a series of quality priorities each year, and I am pleased to report that we made substantial progress against our quality priorities for 2018/19 as described in the accounts below. The Trust is proud of its dedicated staff, and I am delighted to report that several teams have been recognised for their outstanding work and nominated for a number of awards in 2018/19. This reflects the commitment of our staff to deliver the highest quality of care. This has included, amongst many others: - Our Home First partnership team named as regional winners in the National NHS70 Parliamentary Awards. The Home First scheme was launched by the Trust in 2017 and aims to reduce the length of stay for patients who are clinically well enough to leave hospital, but who might need extra support to return to their usual place of residence; The Royal United Hospitals’(RUH) specialist Sleep team, and Pulmonary Hypertension care service both shortlisted in this year’s British Thoracic Society awards; Three pioneering projects from the Trust shortlisted as Health Service Journal (HSJ) Award finalists which celebrate excellence and innovations throughout the health service, including a patient safety project introducing screening tools to identify patients at risk of sepsis and acute kidney injury (AKI) and a nomination for establishing a national quality improvement training programme for staff at the RUH. Staff from our Project SEARCH team were also recognised in the Widening Participation category and went on to win at the Awards Ceremony on 21st November 2018. This category recognises organisations who make efforts to recruit from groups and communities who aren’t well represented in the NHS workforce, have had trouble finding employment elsewhere or that have specific needs and 105 experiences. Project SEARCH is a one-year course supported by the Trust, in partnership with Virgin Care and Fosse Way School, which helps students with learning disabilities to gain work experience and find jobs; The Trust received a commendation at the 2018 Quality in Care (QiC) Diabetes Awards for its work in helping children manage their diabetes; and Our multi-award winning Frailty Flying Squad were named winners for the 5127 Award at the 2018 Fab Awards on 17-18th November. The pioneering specialist team of doctors, nurse practitioners and therapists work in the Trust’s Emergency Department and Medical Assessment Unit and identifies older patients who, with some intensive assessment and treatment, have the opportunity to return to the community rather than being admitted to hospital. Like many other acute trusts this year, we have been facing huge pressures on our Emergency Department (ED) with increasing admissions and a higher than the national average elderly population. With our partners we have focused on reducing long lengths of stay in hospital and this year we have seen a month on month reduction in the number of patients staying over 21 days in hospital (24% reduction from 2017/2018). This means that patients leave hospital when they are ready to and avoid any unnecessary delays. We remain committed to delivering high quality safe care to our patients at all times, and we recognise the impact that periods of continued pressure have both on our patients and staff. I would like to take this opportunity to thank our staff for their dedication and support throughout the year. We also continue to work in a more efficient and effective manner, make savings and meet efficiency targets while still providing quality care to our patients. The Trust has established a programme of work that will support us in the delivery of sustainable highest quality services to our patients and enable us to be an employer of choice through our particular focus on staff engagement and wellbeing. This exciting four-year programme is called "Improving Together" and will focus on creating a culture of service improvement across our hospitals at all levels, and ensuring that front- line clinical staff are empowered to effect change and improvements to the services they provide. The work will deliver our vision and key objectives for patient safety and quality, staff satisfaction and sustainability. I confirm that to the best of my knowledge the information in these quality accounts is accurate, and I hope that you find it interesting and informative. I would welcome any feedback you would like to share.

  • (PPG) Access Information to Local Hospitals the Data in This Document Was Updated February 2020
    Shepton Mallet Grove House Surgery - Shepton Mallet Patient Participation Group (PPG) Access Information to Local Hospitals The Data in this Document was updated February 2020 NHS Patient’s who live in the Mendip Area and require Hospital Appointments, may need to attend any one of the Hospitals which are located over a large area. It is therefore important for Patients to have access to data that will help them get to the chosen Hospital for their appointment. There are options for patients who are able to go independently or with friend or relative by car. a) Park & Ride if available b) Drive direct c) Community Transport is another option If you have a medical need and want to check if you are entitled to free NHS transport, patients can call the NHS Transport Advice Centre. Also seek advice as to whether or not you can claim a refund for cost of transport to the Hospital. As a result of feedback from patients at Grove House Surgery, the Grove House Patient Participation Group, decided to create a document that would give Patients a Hospital access information guide, to help them get to a Hospital in the Area. We hope the Hospital Data attached to this Document will be of Use. The Information gathering to produce this guide, was done by PPG Member Mr. Neville Everett with the assistance of fellow members of the Grove House PPG Data Correct at time of Publication. Parking Charges are subject to change If you Have any comments regarding the attached data, or want to add any information We will be pleased to hear from you.

It promises to identify and acknowledge carers. help carers to access support. communicate with carers, and provide them with the information they need. involve carers in care, planning and decision-making for the person they care for. Sharon Manhi, RUH Lead for Patient and Carer Experience, said: “In this national Carers Week we’re reminded of the important role that carers have in the care of their loved one. “By listening to and involving carers we can ensure that the care we provide is person- centred and meets patients’ individual needs. “There are 6.5 million people in the UK who are carers. Some don’t recognise themselves as a carer – they could be a wife, a husband, a child or a parent, and see looking after their loved one as part of their relationship. The support that the carer gives could be because their loved one has a physical disability, a long-term health condition, a mental health issue or a problem with substance misuse. Carers can be any age, including children and teenagers.” Fiona Carr, from Peasedown St John, near Bath, has been a full-time carer for her husband John since he had a major stroke in 2014.

While anyone with coronavirus symptoms is advised to stay at home and not come to a hospital, RUH Medical Director Dr Bernie Marden says most services are running as usual and that people with no coronavirus symptoms should still seek help if they need it. He said: “People are still having accidents, strokes, heart attacks and so on. We have organised the hospital in a way that makes us confident we can still provide the same level of care for all our patients. “We are still very much a functioning, active general hospital providing all the services that people expect us to provide at any hour of the day or night. Nobody should be worried about coming here if they need to.” The public is advised to follow the same processes – using the emergency number 999, the non-emergency number 111 and pharmacists in the usual way. The hospital is particularly keen to reassure parents that they should not hesitate to seek help if their child is ill. They should follow guidelines and call NHS 111 if their child has any symptom that they are worried about, whether they think this relates to coronavirus or not.
